Gravity

The dawn was breaking and morning light dim,
I heard my dad calling and ran into him.

So I puck myself up off of the ground,
I gues he won this time around.

This loathsome beast has come again,
That wretched monster, Gravity-man!

I've battled him on a daily basis,
But I am still unsure of where his face is.

A shapeless demon surrounding me
This frightful fiend ferociously
Pulls agains my feet and back
Throws my bones all out of wack.

I remember when it all began
Held within my mamma's hands.

She felt her feet begin a'flailin'
And swiftly reach for the railin'.

While I was flying through the air
I smacked the beast and could not bear
The awful pain sent into my veins
When caught within his awful reigns.

I vowed to never succumb again
To that wretched, horrid demon.

As the days continue on
I fight that scary devil-spawn.

Upcoming is the epic onslaught
To defeat that foe, its ready or not.

Emerging from my room of preparation
My enemy awaits on firm foundation.

My life-long foe I must annihilate
For this quibble will no longer wait.

Tentatively I travel down the stairs,
The monster quickly follows, and ensnares

My feet into the air, my head to the floor
I twist and turn and my back gets sore.

I fought harder than any man could fight
But fate was not on my side that night.

With my last dying breathe, once more I've failed
So I tell that monster to go to ...heck!
